Vrrrm vrrrm. Oh yeah! Brazilian sugar cane biofuels.

*Brazil's president insisted that crops used for ethanol are not responsible for driving up food prices.
While biofuels produced from plants such as sugar cane are promoted as an environmentally friendly alternative to fossil fuels, they also have come under fire for elbowing out traditional food crops in developing countries because they are more profitable.
There also are fears that tracts of Brazil's rain forests could be felled to make way for biofuels or other crops because of the pressure to increase farmland.

ニュースアニメ「ルーラ・ダ・シルヴァ・ブラジル大統領」
1945年にルイス・イナシオ・ダ・シルヴァとして貧しい無学の農民の一家に生まれた。19歳の時、プレス工として勤務していた自動車工場で、指を失う。その頃から労働組­合に加入するが、当時の軍事独裁政権が労働組合を強力に抑圧したことで、ルーラの政治観は左傾化。1980年に進歩的な理念を掲げた左翼政党を発足させ、2002年の大統­領直接選挙で初当選した。今やブラジルは資源大国として存在感を増しており、サトウキビ栽培によるバイオエタノール生産では輸出を行うほど。世界のバイオエタノール市場に­おいて、ブラジル産が7割以上を占める。

  • Just to let you know, food prices going up has NOTHING TO DO with sugar cane plantations AT ALL!!! They have to do with the oil prices, so actually if there were more cane plantations the prices would low!! And the cane plantations are VERY far from Amazônia and the soil of the florest is not good for the plantation of sugar cane!!
